Hebden Spirit
There’s a lovely thing happening in Hebden Bridge next Friday evening, at the new town hall. Many of the artists and makers who live here, and quite a few that don’t, but love the town, have donated beautiful things to be auctioned. The auction is to raise funds for a series of events in the […]

Bridge Lanes
I finished it! It’s big – as big as my desk would allow and it’s for the exhibition at The Calder Gallery when it fully restored and dried out following the floods. This is a very warm picture because the back of the Bridge Lanes houses are always bathed in sunlight. I will be uploading […]

Cards
I found that I was often being asked, so I decided to produce this range of 5, blank greetings cards: I’m really please with how they turned out! You can currently buy them from Radiance in Hebden Bridge, and at Dean Clough Design Shop, Halifax. You can also buy them from here – just email […]

Higher Ground
Following the spectaularly damp weekend in Hebden Bridge I thought I would post this painting. It is a commission I have just completed for some people who live above Midgely. And the sketches I took were on a beautifully sunny day. Remember those? It’s a big one! Now I need to get it across to […]

Tomorrow!
Tomorrow, early, I am heading to Saltaire to set up my display. My lanterns – my first sample run of them – are all ready. I’ve spent this evening making paper bunting for part of the display… I’ve been a busy girl, and there’s lots of work on display. I hope to get some visitors! […]

An unexpected painting day
Technical issues held up the laser cutting of my last lantern design today so I had whole day of painting. Something I haven’t had for weeks and weeks! I’m well on track for the Saltaire Arts Trail and have a big pile of prints all gilded and wrapped. I am painting a large piece at […]

Underdwellings and Overdwellings
I’m about to take this new painting to the framers, ready for The Saltaire Arts Trail. It’s a bit smaller than usual. I’ve been experimenting with text! Only two seeks to go! I’ve also just finished gilding the range of prints I’m exhibiting there. I’m getting a few framed up this time. I am hoping […]
